Just finished my filming today for this movie in Belfast! Was my first movie experience and it was absolutely phenomenal! My very last shot of the day had me almost running into Ben Kingsley!!!! LMAO!!! Not bad for an extra!!!!
A rising star. He had a lead role in Across The Universe, as Jude. In this film, he is playing the part of Martin McGartland, although his name is not that in the movie.
I was an extra in this as well, I played a pall-bearer in a funeral scene with Jim. I recognised him from "Across the Universe", but everyone else assumed he was a local actor due to his superb Irish accent. Great actor - one to watch.
HE HAS AN IRISH ACCENT IN THE MOVIE! oh lord *swoon* AND according to the sypnosis he gets to be all bloody and sweaty. Yes I am shallow and a little messed. But seriously, I's really like to know more about what type of movie he's making and the character he and the others play. I guess I could just read the book though...
I did a bit of acting on this film. I was the father of a family whose house is raided by british soldiers. They wreck my living room and pin me up against a wall. It was pretty cool as I got really roughed up and I was trying to fight back but those guys were big!
Congrats to you extras for helping turn out a fantastic film. I just watched it tonight and absolutely loved it, especially Jim's performance, which was just incredible. I bet you had a great time...thanks for sharing! :)
i played a rioter on the short strand and a peeler at the xplosion at the bar were an brit got bomded and at the flats were the guy gets thrown from the window
